Royer R121 Limited Edition 15th Anniversary Nickel

Rare 15th anniversary classic.




This is a special limited run of the
award-winning Royer R-121 ribbon microphone. It has the same body and
internal workings of the R-121, but sports the original black Royer logo
that was issued when the mic debeuted in 1998. It is part of a limited
run of 250 of these microphones, some of which are separated out to
offer matched pairs. In that sense it is a very limited opportunity to
own one of these rare and collectible microphones. The R-121 15th
anniversary comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by David
Royer.

That of course is a reason wholly apart from the best
reason to own an R-121: the sound. Since its debut in 1998, the R-121
has been one of the most widely used and beloved studio microphones.
Royer did away with the large, heavy, fragile "classic" approach to
ribbon microphones and went in a completely new direction. The R-121
gives all of the warmth and natural sound that experienced engineers
have long turned to ribbon mics for, but in a compact, light-weight,
high output and tough-as-nails package that was unheard of in a ribbon
mic before the R-121.

In its 10+ years in the market, thousands
of R-121's have been sold around the world. It is well established as a
standard for tracking electric guitar and brass. Like many of the best
classic ribbon mics, the R-121 has a figure-8 pattern, output level
comparable to a dynamic mic, and a warm, realistic tone and flat
frequency response. But that's where the similarities end. By using
advanced materials and a blend of cutting edge and old-school,
hand-build construction techniques, the R-121 is an extremely versatile
and user-friendly ribbon mic that can stand up to the most demanding
tasks. Cranked up electric guitars, close up brass, drums - you name it,
the R-121 will help you record it with realism you have to hear to
believe.

The R-121's proprietary offset ribbon transducer (Patent
# 6,434,252) is the first of its kind, positioning the ribbon element
closer to the front (logo) side of the microphone. This arrangement
gives the ribbon more room to move within the prime magnetic field while
maintaining full frequency response during high SPL recordings. It's an
integral piece of the magic of all Royer R-series microphones.
